This session welcomes everyone in the AISTATS community who identifies with one or more affinity groups or as an ally. The event will be in the form of speed networking, where you will meet fellow participants in short 1:1 sessions. Share your experiences, opportunities and challenges with others. At the end of the event, maybe you will find a mentor, mentee, peer or even a collaborator? The event is hosted by Miriam Rateike (Max-Planck-Institute for Intelligent Systems, Tübingen & University of Saarland) and Deborah Dormah Kanubala (University of Saarland).
